then, to such extent, the obligations of Borrower hereunder intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Holder.

prepayment) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Prepayment Date specified in the applicable Prepayment Notice (provided that Borrower shall compensate Holder for any and all reasonable

month.



	iv.
	Except
in the case of payments following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (and, for avoidance of doubt, not including any
prepayments pursuant to Section 4.b below), there shall be no voluntary prepayment of the Loan unless simultaneously therewith there are prepayments of all other Combined Loans with the
aggregate amount of such prepayments allocated ratably among the Notes and the Mezzanine Notes based on the outstanding principal balances thereof. The Prepayment Amount for this Note shall be equal
to the Proportionate Combined Loan Share of the aggregate amount of such voluntary prepayments on the Combined Loans.

	b.
	Mandatory Prepayments.

agreement of Holder and the holders of Note A-1, Note A-2, and Note B-1, such sums may be applied to prepay the outstanding principal balance
of this Note, Note A-1, Note A-2 and Note B-1 as otherwise allocated by Lender and without regard for the effect on the weighted average
interest rate in accordance with Section 6.2.3(b) of the Loan Agreement.

	Payments in Connection with a Prepayment.



	i.
	On
the date on which a prepayment, voluntary or mandatory, is made under this Note or as required under the Loan Agreement, which date must be a Business
Day, Borrower shall pay to Holder all unpaid interest on the portion of the Principal Amount prepaid, which accrued but unpaid interest shall be calculated through the end of the Interest Period
during which such prepayment occurs and interest shall be calculated as if such Interest Period extends beyond the date of such prepayment and be calculated as if the Loan has not been prepaid on such
date.



	ii.
	On
the Prepayment Date, Borrower shall pay to Holder all other sums, excluding scheduled interest payments but including, and not limited to, the Prepayment
Fee (provided that no Prepayment Fee shall be payable with respect to a mandatory prepayment from Proceeds under Section 4(b) above), then due Holder under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the

accrue interest for the benefit of Borrower to but excluding the Payment Date immediately following such Release Date, such interest to be disbursed by Holder to Borrower on the next succeeding
Payment Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Sections 4(c) and 4(d) shall apply to
the prepayment effected by the payment of the Release Price with respect to a Release Property.
